    Remington 700 SPS vs Savage Axis XP vs Winchester XPR

    I would like to know which would be the best for a new-ish hunter. In .243/308/6.5 Win, which would be the best for North Idaho medium game (like deer). I would also like to know magazine capacity, magazine type (blind box/internal is preferred), etc. Thank you for your help and opinions!

    As things have turned out in my life, every rifle in my collection today is a .22 (Rimfire, .223 Remington or 5.7mm Johnson).
